anyone run tr Motorsport wheels for track?

[cosm3os]

Know them well as good cheap and good looking wheels for spec miata and e30s. Any reason they wouldn't be a good wheel for the mustang?

 

[JScheier]

They are good wheels. I think they were a little 'late' to the party as Enkie, Forge-Line and D-Force came out earlier, so that's what most track-rats run. Also, very little advertising.

If I needed a set of track wheels (I already have several), I'd definitely take a look at the TR wheels.

Cool. I'm guessing 18 and square is the way to go. How wide and how wide a tire (not looking to go nuts) ?

 

[JScheier]

18x10 with ~43 offset seems to work pretty well.

Tire sizes: 275x35, 285x35, 295x40 (huge), 305/650 are all sizes I've run without issue on all four corners.

Any links? Also do you have any info on templates, I am still trying to find 18"s that will fit over the GT500 brake calipers without buying $600 BBS wheels.

Same applies to my gt?

If you come out to Hastings for the Roundup, you can bolt up a set of my D-Force wheels and see if they clear.

John, I wish but I am committed to Parents weekend at Ohio University that weekend. Next year for sure.

Tire Rack only has them in 8 or 8.5. I've seen them in 10 on BMW s. Anyone know where to find them in our fitment?

If tirerack doesn't carry them then no one will. TR Motorsports is their in-house brand

Phil's Tire Service confirmed for me they don't make the size. I've decided on 275 Rivals or R comps, so it looks like I need a 9.5 rim. Any suggestions (read: cheaper) than the Enkei's?

SVE drifts. They're the go-to budget "race" wheel. Good sizing and unbeatable price
